Nicknames and inside jokes welcome

Dragon learns the words and phrases you use the most and can adapt to spell even difficult words and proper names correctly. And by using the Vocabulary Editor, add single words or phrases for more accurate dictation as you go.

Hands full? No headset? No problem

Search for a recipe while chopping onions or complete a homework assignment with your hands behind your head. With Dragon 13 you can dictate text in more places, with multiple microphone options including the one built-into your laptop. So you can go both hands-free and headset free.

Better just got easier

Start using Dragon within minutes of opening the box. The enhanced intuitive design and helpful tutorials make it easy to use and master working with Dragon.

Dictate

Create letters, fliers, chronicle family histories and more

Dictate, edit and format memos, to-do lists or even a memoir. Writer’s block? Think out loud to capture ideas in Microsoft, Notepad, WordPerfect and other popular applications. You can even talk to fill out forms for online shopping, class registration and more. Use voice commands like:

"Open Notepad…Grover family tree 1919"

"Spell that K-A-T-H-R-Y-N"

"Spell that R-U-M-P-E-L-S-T-I-L-T-S-K-I-N"

"Worchester Elementary bake sale…format that bold"

Or, create custom commands for frequently used words and phrases or to manage files and photos

Web search

Search, surf and browse the web

Use your voice to search the web or specific websites for recipes, information, videos, directions, or browse online stores with commands like:

"Search Google for the best brunch in Chicago"

"Open top site for local weather forecast"

"Search video for puppies"

See what Dragon fans are saying

The ease of use and the learning curve of the software were great. Pretty much load it, spend a few minutes training and I was up and running.

I'm 14 and have a problem with reading and writing which is related to dyslexia. Dragon Naturally speaking has given me the ability to write reports for school and e-mail my friends. I really like the read back function.

I am 72-year-old man that started working on computers in 1954. I have just started using NaturallySpeaking, and it has totally changed my Internet usage. Now that I can type the Internet has really opened up to me.
